I appreciate your comment. Like @84Mags, communication is left turns and right turns and uturns. So is life. Nothing is ever as straightforward as it seems. Deeper things are always at play.

But really, between Jay and Aidan, Loren didn't have a chance in hell. He was doomed from the start. In the best possible way.

They really are. Like I said earlier, kids love differently. They don't have the judgement and bias's that adults have.

Agree. @84Mags has the best comments 💗

I would like one order of Jay Petermeyer, to go. Thank you.

Lol Jay better not quit his day job. Subtly is not his redeeming quality.

We are. Essentially, all that's left is Mexico. Which means...so little I can screw up on now!

Kids love in a way that we suck at. Well, except Jay.

Love this. Thank you. You always leave great feedback! loren definitely is dealing with his inner demons here. Exposure. Exposure. Exposure.

They will start being more and more active in the story. Especially Aidan and soon to be Carson. Seamus’s protectiveness isn’t unreasonable. He just wants what’s best for Jay. He’s working off info Jay has given him

chapter fourteen jay “What is your advice to someone who wants to be an influencer?” The blonde girl asks as she unintentionally pushes me out of the group. Loren grins at me, not missing the gesture. We finished taking group pictures but I guess that’s all they needed from me. I spot Seamus pulling up to the curb so I grab our bags and head outside. “I’ll just be a minute,” Loren says. I give him a thumbs up and leave to greet my friend. Seamus rounds the Suburba

What in the world makes you think I'd give away something like that?! lol

We're almost halfway. There's still a lot left, though it will fly by quickly.

It was like 5600 hundred words to start with and I split off 3k that didn't get used, and then added back 1,000 words filling in more detail. It's all working out though. I actually think it's better with the change. 14 might be a little long though.

He’s the only one that doesn’t live there. In Boss Nanny, Jay is always visiting. Chapter 8: “Where are you going?” “My best friend Jay is in town. A few of us are going out. I won’t be late.” Jay is not at every Board meeting. And yes, every time he babysits, he’s there visiting. Every time Loren drops by the cafe, which isn’t often, is because they’re there visiting. In chapter 21, Seamus asked Matt “I was thinking that after graduation you and I could go on a little break. Nothing crazy. Maybe fly to Seattle and stay on Orcas Island? I talked to Jay. He was actually thinking maybe he could take Aidan for a week? He lives in Seattle, and it would be your first time away from Aidan for more than a weekend. It might be nice to have him close by.” At the end of Boss Nanny, while in Mexico, Jay says he and Loren are moving close to them. “Loe and I talked a lot about the future and what that looks like. It doesn’t involve kids of our own and that was hard for me. It was also a willing sacrifice for the man I love. But I need to be an uncle. I want sleepovers and car rides and ice cream trips. So, as much as moving closer to you is for the business, it’s for me. It’s for us.” As for Northern Cali. Not sure why it comes off that way. Even as I wrote Boss Nanny, I had no clue where they lived 🤷🏻‍♀️ I always kept It vague. If anything, I was leaning towards Boise ID.

Wait…people who haven’t read Boss Nanny? Who are these folks? I want names! JK. But they were in chapter 9, during the championship game before Loren spilled about his past, so it’s not like they haven’t been introduced.

And it’s soooooo good!! 🥰🥰🥰😋😋

In Boss Nanny it was never referenced where they live. They now live in CO lol

Good observation. Once I started writing them, it just didn't go that way. I had no way to know. With that said, it will be addressed in the next chapter...or the one after, I can't remember

Thank you. Jay and Loren have their moments where they shine. ❤️

Yes, and I wanted everyone to know I deleted stuff so it would drive you crazy lol
